The test shots we saw of Thrust and Dirge have clear cockpit windows too, but again Dirge has his face painted white, which is completely wrong. We've got different differences between the CG renders, the leaked test shots, and now these promotional images of actual figures from Takara Tomy. It's entirely possible that these are again non-final production models, as happened with Earthrise Optimus Prime, who's plastic colors and paint apps just kept changing between renders, convention samples, and official promotional photography.
Who knows what the final products will actually look like at this point.
Did any of the promotional shots show him with a white face and clear cockpit? The only time we saw him with that was that leaked production sample that I'm almost positive was hand painted. The picture from Amazon has him with a gray face (slightly metallic so it might look white, but it isn't) and it's basically the same as the most recent pictures from Amazon so this is probably what we're getting.
We didn't get CG models for these so there's no telling what Hasbro's original plans were.

This is Amazon's listing link. They took pre-orders a few months ago at that link and I'm sure they will again soon enough. I kept it in my Amazon browsing history and I check it daily.
